started binging this thinking the finale drops this week, oops they split the last 2 into 2 weeks instead of double drops every week like before. Oh well.

Show starts off really strong the first 4 episodes, Bettany and Spader are fantastic and the rest of the AI helpers are pretty good too, Paladin is really awesome too. Then the show drops off a cliff in episode 5 when a dumb bald black bitch comes on screen and steals all the screen time while she is also stealing body parts. It pretty much gets worse every episode after that, and the last episode sucked. Its not sexism either, Tommy is a fucking shitty actor/character too.

Way too much retconning going on of AI/Stark tech, its incredibly stupid that 100 years ago a dude was writing AI code lol. On what, a fucking etch a sketch?!? Its retarded that nanotech from 20 years ago would be more powerful than the tech advanced in the past 20 years by Stark, Banner, Wakanda, and whatever other powers are out there. Its retarded that 20 year old biolocks wouldn't be easily defeated by the quantum computers of Vision, Friday, etc. Its retarded that Vision looks like the Human Torch (OG), we literally saw a chinese chick build Vision (Ultron) in Age of Ultron out of vibranium.

Just a whole lot of retconning to make a shitty story, it reminds me a lot of Star Trek Picard and Discovery and what do you know, the showrunner was the showrunner for Picard so it suddenly makes a lot more sense.

Oh well, finale next week and I'll watch but I expect more bullshit and no appearances by Wanda, the only thing that could save the show. End the Marvel live TV experiment with this crap and put all these characters to rest, they and we deserve much better.

This is almost certainly drawing on the OG human torch story, so the clockwork tech thing I can give a pass. Its a fucking comic book, not a Nolan film. The Jacosta pallete swap is something I do not care about and I will even go as far to say that the actress playing her is good, it is just a stupid character from its inception in comics and the short story format of these limited series does it no favors. The Tommy and his Girlfriend shit is definitely the weak point, but it was key for vision 2,0 to get his identity back so it had to be in there. I actually liked the last episode for one simple reason, James Spader. The dude is strapping this show to his back and absolutely killing it. That alone makes it worth watching.
